maddest[The device flicks on. Static.
And off. Three seconds, then on again.]
What-
[Then off.
Then to video- there's a shot of someone's elbow, and it's off again.
On. Rap rap rap. Someone's knocking it against a table to see if it can be broken open.]
-most troublesome.

[Another pause of thought. Is there anything else? Oh-]
Right. And be careful of the rabbits around here. They're carnivorous.

Date: 2009-10-10 08:29 pm (UTC)The first button you pushed sent a message of your voice speaking. The one we're on now is video, which means that I see an image of you, just like you see me right now.

Date: 2009-10-10 08:35 pm (UTC)I'm not sure I understand entirely.

Date: 2009-10-10 08:38 pm (UTC)It's a hard concept to explain. Just- as long as you know that by pushing those buttons, you can send messages to other people, then I think you should be alright.

Date: 2009-10-10 08:42 pm (UTC)There's a group of scientists that brought us here- I've yet to find out if it was purely accidental or not- but I suppose these devices are key in forming alliances and protecting one another from various monsters and... unpleasant effects this place tends to generate.

Date: 2009-10-10 08:55 pm (UTC)[Break's image is flickering as he presses the different buttons. Yuca is amused by the other's confusion, but figures he's at least obligated to inform him of the Animus.]

Date: 2009-10-10 09:00 pm (UTC)I haven't been here that long, but- when I arrived, everyone had lost something important to them. Not long after I dropped in, books and pictures of our lives randomly began to appear. It was a little startling.

Date: 2009-10-10 09:05 pm (UTC)It's nothing unendurable. Even if it was, death isn't real in this place.

Date: 2009-10-10 09:25 pm (UTC)I haven't witnessed it personally, but I've been told that, once someone dies, they simply return the next day- only, they're missing something. An important memory, or valuable skill... something like that.

Date: 2009-10-10 09:44 pm (UTC)But nothing so bad as real death, from which there is no coming back.
[Not that he would know.]
